This has often struck me as the case for me, but I wondered about you.

First let me define "lust". I view it as an inexplicable attraction that is definitely sexual. It need not lead to love.

Romantic love, to me is the desire to be with that person for ever, meeting their needs and yes, making love to them physically.

So, to me Romantic Love starts with lust. Though lust does not lead to love in all, or even many, cases.

Over to you?
